I found this LiteBrite toy, game, online time waster lol HERE Boy did I have a nice time playing with it.

But it was because of Black*Eiffel that I even found out about the LiteBrite. Black*Eiffel is a neat website where they talk about people, places, things and ideas that are interesting. I guess any place is like that really - but Black*Eiffel is more of a design blog.

Did you ever have a LiteBrite as a kid? I didn't. I think it's because it had small parts. My mother was not a fan of toys with small parts. I think my sister Alison (who is 6 years younger than me) had one. But it might have been Hillary (13 years younger than me.) I can't exactly remember when the small parts were allowed into the house, but at some point I remember seeing the LiteBrite in the girls closet.

The picture above is a scaled down version of the one online - but that is my picture. I made it. They are tulips. My baby sister's favorite flowers are tulips and I was thinking of her when I was putting my LiteBrite pegs into the screen. I thought about how I'd like to send her some tulips.

Last month I talked about a Cute House and that Cute House is now Hillary's House. She signed the papers & got the keys. I'm so proud of her.

My Mother opened up a business in Lansing, Mi in 1994 called "The Dancing Goat Coffeehouse," everyone just called it "The Goat." We were open for just four years. I loved being a part of downtown Lansing, being a part of the Goat and I especially enjoyed meeting all of the people that came through the doors. I still miss The Goat, but have created my own version of it right here. The Goat, my blog, is a place where you can come in, read a little, enjoy the company, the revolving artwork on the walls and get a chance to relax and have a good laugh. I hope you participate in the atmosphere by leaving a comment when you pass through.
Thanks for stopping by The Goat, come back again! You may email me at Kirby3131 (at) gmail (dot) com
